Daisy Moo is a family holiday haven set in the tranquillity of the countryside. Just a two minute wander from the secluded and sandy Borthwen Beach, with its rock pools and coastal path walks.

This lovely holiday cottage is a carefully renovated Grade II listed barn where once the cows congregated. Now, hidden inside the rugged stone exterior you can find a high specification interior. Daisy Moo is great for families or couples alike.

The large open living space has a warm oak floor, beamed and vaulted ceiling and comfy sofas. A widescreen HD television/ DVD player caters for evenings when you want to hunker down and hide from the outside world. There is a well-stocked DVD library, plenty of board games and Wi-Fi, which extends throughout the barn. An efficient and easy to use wood burning stove is great for winter evenings and creates a natural focal point. On summer days, the stable door lets in the warm air and sea views whilst keeping the room secure for toddlers and dogs.

A dining area seats six comfortably. A solid oak ship’s ladder leads up into the hayloft which has a wide oak window seat and commands a westerly view over the peaceful fields to the sea. This is a great place to escape to and has two low single beds to transform the hayloft into a unique and cosy bedroom for two - please note though it overlooks the living space.

Leading off the living space, a modern country cream kitchen contains all that you need with the bonus of views down the lane to the lighthouse. Come home to crisp contemporary bedrooms with great bedding and bathrooms with heated towel radiators and fluffy towels.

The main bedroom is uncluttered with a double bed and shuttered windows which reveal views down the country lane to the sea. It also has the luxury of an ensuite shower room. The twin room has single beds with the option of being made into a super king on request, and a large built-in wardrobe with shelving and hanging space. Across the hallway is a family bathroom clad in honeyed travertine stone with a bath to soak in after a day on the beach. The bedrooms and bathrooms have underfloor heating which is toasty underfoot and great for even the wildest days.

The bright, tiled hallway has a large storage cupboard and French windows open directly onto a sunny south facing patio where breakfasts are a delight, overlooking the lawn and countryside view. Fire up the barbeque and enjoy some local meat from the award-winning butcher in Valley. Outside Daisy Moo is a large communal lawn, shared with three other barns, which is perfect for playing.

The surrounding area is a haven for nature lovers, providing fantastic walks, coarse and sea fishing, riding and sailing opportunities. After a short mile and a half walk through a wealth of coves and stunning scenery, you come to Church Bay and the popular seafood restaurant, The Lobster Pot. The local village is less than a mile away with a shop for groceries and a great pub with wood burning stove and local food, where dogs are also welcome.

Only a few miles away is the port town of Holyhead, not just offering the convenience of supermarkets but also links to Ireland. The A55 expressway is 10 minutes away giving easy access to the mainland.

What people say about this cottage

Barn was just lovely. Simon and I had a wonderful time and were delighted with the accommodation. Loved the interiors, the detail and comfort and very clean too.

We all really enjoyed our stay at Daisy Moo and certainly would recommend it to other families. Our teenage grandsons particularly like the mezzanine. It was very much their own space . We enjoyed the peace of the location and being able to have views of the sea from the kitchen window made the domestic chores almost pleasurable! The bubbly was very welcome. I have to say I think some of the larger holiday letting agents could learn a lot about personal service from Boltholes and Hideways. We have used you three times now and I wouldn’t hesitate to use you again. We would recommend you to our family and friends.

We had a lovely week in Daisy Moo. The property was very comfortable and well equipped. There was everything we could need. The barns are beautifully placed with views over to the Skerries and gorgeous sunsets. We really appreciated the welcome pack and fresh flowers. Little touches like that make all the difference. We found your company really helpful and friendly.

We have been very fortunate to have stayed in Borthwen Barns 4 times, 3 of which were in Daisy Moo. Daisy Moo is beautifully fitted out with good quality furniture,appliances and accessories. The beach is literally round the corner and ideal for families and dogs,we spent many a happy hour or two walking and paddling. It did help that the weather was superb for our stay as we were able to visit a few other excellent beaches, Treadeur Bay, Rhosneiger, Abafraw, Lligwy and Benlech. We would like to thank Catherine and her team for ensuring that we felt so comfortable and safe during our visit, especially with the uncertainty of Covid lurking in the background. We would definitely recommend Borthwen Barns and Boltholes and Hideaways, without any reservations whatsoever. We will be back !
